Artist Statement:
I am self-taught and find a lot of freedom in allowing myself to explore and find my own way. However, like the female painter in Virginia Woolf’s “To the Lighthouse”, I am terrified of the blank canvas. “Where to begin? — that was the question at what point to make the first mark? One line placed on the canvas committed her to innumerable risks, to frequent and irrevocable decisions.”

I like to incorporate mixed media, to give myself a starting point. You will often find collage elements in my pieces and I also love working on and with found objects.

We all have hidden yearnings and talents that seek creative expression. Over the years, I have explored various media, starting with photography, oil painting, then collage and currently mixed media encaustic.

When you are truly absorbed in making art, it becomes a meditation. You are transported beyond the analytical, critical mind. I see the "artist" as a channel, so that if we get out of our own way and let the creativity flow, we can tap into something wonderful, something beyond our limited sense of self.
